  1. Glad he's OK. People should definitely consider growing their content also outside of YouTube as Jeremy does (I actually usually follow him on Bitchute). YouTube is too arbitrary to trust your whole online presence to.

  2. Shouldn't happen but these streamers are exploiting some very troubled people. From the streamer's perspective, I'm sure it seems safe sitting facing a camera and watching your bank account increase but they should be aware of the risks they're taking on.

  3. Oh, another Sherlock Holmes show? How original.

  4. You could if you thought it might cause the other party to remediate the situation. I don't think that's possible in this case though, the damage has been done.

  5.  @anarchochristian1910  I don't believe you can. Yet I believe you can wear a wig. Which is an interesting contradiction.

  6.  @LiberPater777  Pictures of Tim without his hat on are out there. He really should just own it.

  7. I actually cancelled twice because it's really easy to accidentally re-enable the account if you don't remove your payment detals.

  8.  @liwojenkins  If MFA is implemented correctly. Often ways around are left. But even then, some of these hacks work on current, logged-in sessions. Some people keep all their YouTube stuff on completely separate systems for this reason. Linus is big enough that this should probably be the case there but we've seen before that he often plays fast-and-loose with best practices.

  9. I suspect it wasn't malicious. That much bad code would be hard to write and integrate on that sort of timeline. This has probably been technical debt acquired over a decade or more.

  10.  @drompimccoy9501  People will put up with a lot but there's usually a line. Netflix crossed it. They should have known better. Presumably anyone who might have objected was concerned about being called some kind of phobe and cancelled. Though to be sure, I was beginning to wonder if the value proposition was still there. And I was someone who bought netflix stock when the kwikster dump happened.

  11.  @thomaswagner2243  Thanks for the offer but that picture has already been all over the memes where I hang out.

  12.  @BorderlinePathetic  I think the takeaway message is to have a local copy, whatever the format. Having a backup is a good idea too for anything you value.

  13. Gonzo journalism typically means someone who overrates their skills way beyond their actual abilities.

  14.  @jacobyrassilon  The sad thing with the Marvel was that they were very popular (well, less so for some) and they could have at least done a bit more and wrapped things up nicely. Just cancelling them in the way they did was no less disrespectful than network TV has been over the years and was the beginning of the end as far as I was concerned.

  15. All this YouTube drama is the lamest bullshit.

  16.  @jacobyullman5005  I agree with you 100% with current Netflix but at one time, their suggestion algorithm was very helpful. The change seems to illustrate some underlying psychosis.

  18.  @thephoenix4980  No. These idiots go home once they stop being coddled. Ideally that would be through local governments imprisoning the worst of the instigators but apparently that is off the table.

  19.  cj p  They stated that travelling into the past couldn't affect their own timeline so no. Though that does bring up the question of how Rogers appeared on the bench.

  20. Don't forget that KK might be responsible for shitting up GoT too. D&D were keen to jump ship to work on a Star Wars trilogy. (Though the quality was already heavily on the slide, admittedly).

  21.  @Outstarwalker  I can see that for sure. I think the star of the game is going to be the environment anyway.

  22.  @RyutheWeredragon  The movie about Jack Black's life story should get interesting.

  28. I can't vouch for it but there's some app called public square that is apparently looking to answer this.

  29.  @patricks7784  Yeah, I wasn't being serious really. Sherlock Holmes stories have been done competently several times already. The only way to bring anything new is to bring dumb gimmicks like gender swapping or whatever was going on in Moffat's interpretation.

  30. Just let me get on with the gameplay. I might mess with that stuff later when I need a break.

  31. Just buy one of their reusable mugs if you really just want the logo to advertise your conspicuous consumption. Then fill it with better coffee.

  32. Ugh. Hate livestreaming. People take two hours to say what would normally take a 10-20 minute video.

  33.  @sportscardsandthings  It's really a management issue. Anyone can squeeze in a bit of code to make things work but someone has to make sure code reviews and interface definitions etc are done and documented. All the people Musk was able to fire illustrates that competent architecture was not their priority.

  34. Early on, one of their claimed advantages was that they knew exactly what people wanted. House of Cards was supposedly created entirely (well, it was drawn from a pre-existing IP but the point stands) based on data mining peoples' preferences.

  35. It also says something when people perform "comedy" for applause instead of laughter.

  36. Stranger things only had enough fuel for one season. A lot of its appeal was nostalgia and that can only carry you so far. It's a shame it got renewed when other better, arc-based shows got cancelled.

  37. Is this what you were doing before the Star Wars and Doctor Who stuff I got on board for? Disappointing.

  38. No preordering for me. Have we learned nothing? I'll wait a few days just to make sure there are no show-stoppers.

  39. Harley was a dead man walking when they came out with the aftershave. The toilet seats and dog chew toys were just grist to the mill. You can only coast on your bad-boy image for so long and boomers are starting to die off.

  40.  @jamall7003  It was very janky. I was almost expecting the Spice Girls to start playing like that cringeworthy No Doubt bit in Captain Marvel.

  41. Breaking bad definitely worth the watch. A little overhyped but still good.

  42. The touch controllers are really good. But I think Index will be the way to go. Not yet though, they're having QC issues. Maybe V2.0. Hopefully someone will hack the Oculus stuff to run without needing Oculus software anyway.

  43.  cj p  Sure. There need to be stakes. Though "The whole timeline has changed" has been done well a few times.

  44.  cj p  It's something missing in a lot of modern games. Though some do have hardcore mode. Some of that is because the games are bigger and dying quickly would suck but oftentimes, it's just a way to feed you a story.

  45. DeBlasio is responsible for this.

  46. Among other things, Netflix started cancelling popular shows in the stupid belief that new content was what was needed to draw in new subscribers. People will only take getting invested in a show to have it pulled out from under them so many times before they get pissed off. Loyalty works both ways. The sad thing is that in the early days, the belief was that the subscriber model would lead to popular shows continuing to be produced and that seemed to be playing out. Then Netflix lost their way.

  47. Another Jan 6th moment? They mean another nothingburger? (Ashli Babbitt's murder notwithstanding).

  48. But if you want people to have a wide range in the character creator, it probably makes sense to have the default character be generic. It's one of the reasons masked superheroes like Spiderman are popular. People can mentally overlay themselves over the character. Also why game protagonists with no voice were a thing for a while.

  49. You new here? :D

  50.  @michaelzizzo6726  It's partly due also to the move away from stocks paying dividends. The only way to make money through non-dividend stocks is company growth. Unfortunately, the way taxes are structured discourages dividends in favor of growth.
